ItemMagnet
Hold a key and every item lying around flies to your feet, out of combat only. Cleans up after a fight, never hauls
About this mod Author’s original text
Item Magnet
Hold Y and your character rises into the Forsaken power pose, wreathed in its fire, while every
item lying around flies to your feet: from 10m after a second, and further the longer you hold.
It stops by itself once the last item in reach has landed. What fits in your backpack is picked
up, the rest piles up at your feet. Client side, no server install.
It cleans up, it never hauls: it only works while nothing hostile is near or after you, and an
item that was moved once (pulled, or dropped by a player) is never pulled again. So it tidies up
after a fight or a felled forest, but never carries a load for you. No cooldown, no stamina.
Part of Odin's Missing Patch,
the pack. It works just as well on its own.

Configuration
The config file is BepInEx/config/rauschekuh.itemmagnet.cfg. You can also change settings in
game with a config manager, and they apply right away.
- Item Magnet → the key, how far the pull starts, how fast it grows and how far it reaches.
- General → ThreatRadius, EnragedEnemies and BossFights decide when you count as in
combat.
- Coming from Odin's Missing Patch? On the first start, every setting it had under the same name
is carried over.
Multiplayer
Nobody else needs the mod. Your game takes over an item before moving it, the way picking it up
works, and the game's own auto pickup does the rest.

Install & use Install: BepInEx plugin
- The archive from playbuff is the mod itself — usually a BepInEx plugin (a .dll or a plugin folder once unzipped).
- Recommended: use a community mod manager (such as r2modman) — pick this game, import the mod, and the manager sets up BepInEx and its dependencies for you.
- Manual route: install the BepInEx loader in the game folder, then drop the unzipped .dll or plugin folder into BepInEx/plugins/.
- Launch the game — the BepInEx console logs every plugin it loads; seeing this mod in the log means it is installed.
Mods with listed dependencies need those installed too, or they will not load. Options are usually changed in-game or in the plugin's config file. In multiplayer, the host and every client need the same mods installed.
Install these first, or the mod will not work:
